  - Neil MacDonald in Liverpool Echo: "My first Liverpool FC match was with my dad and brother. Southampton had a rugged central defender called John McGrath. As McGrath and Alun Evans went up for a ball, McGrath punched Alun Evans on the chin. Evans collapsed to the ground, unconcious. It took several minutes to revive him. Once Evans was back on his feet, the ref did not send McGrath off, did not book him, did not give Liverpool a free kick - he decided a drop ball was all that was required. As a young lad it was a rude awakening to our beautiful game."
